11.2 Programming on the Main - PoM
Programming on the main is mainly of interest for locomotive
decoders, since using PoM the settings of the decoder can be
changed on the normal “operating” track. That means the locomotive
can be anywhere on your layout. To change a setting using POM the
decoder does not have to be placed on the programming track.
The use of PoM requires command station version 3 or higher or
a SET02/03. The menu PoM is not available when connecting
LH100 to a command station with a software version prior to 3.
To change the settings in a particular locomotive using PoM, you must
know the address of this locomotive, all programming commands are
dependent on the locomotive address. The command station will send
a command in this manner: “Locomotive number 132 store an
acceleration delay of 10!” This command will be carried out only by
the locomotive with address 132 and none other. If the address isn’t
known or you want to change the address of a locomotive, you need
to use the mode "Programming on the Programming Track" starting
on page 55.
11.2.1 Which settings can be changed with PoM?
All the CVs present in a locomotive decoder can be changed with
PoM, with the exception of the basic address in CV1 and the extended
address in CV17 and CV18. For this reason you should be careful as
you proceed, since if you make a mistake in programming, the
locomotive may not operate until the CV value is corrected! In day-to-
day operation you will probably change the CVs for the acceleration
and deceleration the most frequently.
11.2.2 Which locomotive decoders can have their
settings changed with PoM?
All Digital plus locomotive decoders from the XF and XS series on can
use PoM. If you use locomotive decoders from other manufacturers,
please refer to their manuals for compatibility with PoM.
Locomotive decoders that do not use PoM, are programmed on a
special programming track. For more information on this, see the
section "Programming on the Programming Track" starting on
page 55.
